In The Roar Of The Sea is a novel written by S. Baring-Gould that tells the story of a young man named Nicholas Tremenheere who returns to his hometown in Cornwall after spending several years in Australia. Upon his return, he finds that his family has fallen on hard times and his childhood sweetheart, Cicely, is engaged to another man. As Nicholas tries to rebuild his family's fortunes, he becomes embroiled in a dangerous smuggling operation that threatens to tear apart the community. Along the way, he must confront his own past mistakes and grapple with his feelings for Cicely, who is torn between her loyalty to her fianc����� and her growing attraction to Nicholas.Set against the rugged backdrop of the Cornish coast, In The Roar Of The Sea is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, and redemption. Baring-Gould's vivid descriptions of the landscape and seafaring culture of Cornwall bring the story to life, while his complex characters and intricate plot keep readers engaged until the very end.Judith walked backward, facing him, and he turned with his horse and went after her. She stooped and gathered up a splinter of glass. The sun striking through the gaps in the hedge had flashed on these scraps of broken mirror and of white bone, or burnished brass buttons, and the horse had been frightened at them. As Judith stooped and took up now a buckle, then a button, and then some other shining trifle, she hardly for an instant withdrew her eyes from Coppinger; they had in them the same dauntless defiance as when she encountered him on the stairs of the rectory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
